Found this today and got a bnit of a giggle out of it, it is not meant to offend or demean Christianity but is done purely for humor.
1. I am Linux your OS, you shall have no other OS before me.
2. You shall not make for yourself an icon, or program group, or any likeness of what is not covered by an Open systems specification, or publicly available standard.
3. You shall not worship closed-systems or serve them; for I, Linux, your OS, am quite open about it all.
4. You shall not take the name of the OS of OS's in vain, for "Linux!" doesn't have quite the same ring to it as "Oh Shit!", or other more nasty swear words (including "Microsoft!").
5. Remember the root password, to keep it holy.
6. Honor your init(8) and your rc.local.
7. You shall not murder, except if it will result in one less Micro$oft product in the world, in which case, go for it.
8. You shall not commit adultery - you shall keep your DOS and Linux partitions separate.
9. You shall not introduce nasty trap doors into the kernel source.
10. You shall not covet anything that belongs to your neighbor, as everything your neighbour has is covered under the GNU licence, which means you can ftp the source for yourself.
